Review: From Home Computing Weekly July 19, 1983 |

Gobbledegook Jupiter Ace plus 16K £7.95 Jupiter Cantab, Cheshunt Building, Bateman Street, Cambridge CB2 1LZ If you feel a sense of dé jà vu on
running this ineptly-named piece
of electronic cannibalism it will
not be in any way surprising, for
there is a maze full of dots, a
mobile mouth to eat them, ghosts
- sorry, gooks! (got to watch the
copyright!) - to eat the mouth
and powerpacks which give old
munchy seven seconds in which
to eat a gook. Sounds familiar?
There are two levels of difficulty
and the screen instructionstell you that when eaten by a gook you "lose" one of your three lives. The program keeps your ingestion score and tempts you to try to better it.
The game is very fast and will tax the skill of even the experienced arcade addict, who will also presumably feel at home with the continuous noise emission which accompanies it.
A relatively expensive version of this tired old game with very critical volume level on loading.
